New member Username: DatboypOdessa, TX USA Post Number: 1 Registered: Oct-04 | I've got a Single cab chevy, and i'm wanting to put two 10"s and two 6x9"s in it. would it be better to run both 10"s and the 6x9"s off of one amp, two seperate amps, or the 10"s off the amp and the 6x9"s off the head unit. additionally, does anyone have any recommendations for two 10" subs, two 6x9"s, or amps for either/both/one?? I've got about a $500 budget, but could stretch a bit. |
Anonymous | two 10" adire shivas or cerwin vega vmaxs would be pretty good for subs. the run about 125 each for the shivas, and the vmaxs are about 90-100. JBL bp600.1 is a very good amp, dont know what they run though. but thats about 500 right there. for 6x9s infinite make good speakers. |

Also run the 6x9s off your HU. They will only play treble for you since youll have subs. So you dont need an amp for good treble (plus it would cut about $100+ off). You would be fine with the JBL 600.1 mono amp, That would work well. I dont know what you have in mind for a box though. |

BTW the JBL 600.1 is a great amp =) |
